Evergreen

Hail the mighty evergreen
Everlasting beauty queen
Never in doubt and so serene
Same as it's ever been
Warming my heart
Like kerosene

Eyes aflame
Young lovers sit
Both of us shadowed by the weight of it
Born on an endless burning thrill
Long time ago
I'm aching still
I'm aching still

I spy sun in my eye
Breathing the air
Carefree under our tree
My kerosene dream is she

Autumn rain is breathing low
Mist has veiled the earth below
Shadows that slide like thieves unknown
Into the abalone
Dry as a bone
Our lives have grown

One day
Life goes away
From you
So I will touch you dear
While I am still here with you
